I'm exaggerating; Adobe Flex's MXML was an XML schema for building application UIs declaratively. It supported custom elements, which would correspond to classes you'd write, whose constructors, fields and methods would mirror the attributes and events on the DOM, kind of like a stricter HTML5.
That's a good description of the Flash ecosystem from 2006 onwards, actually: before its time, and more stringent than what came after. That strictness was the legacy of ECMAScript 4, I suppose.
These are the after-images, sorry I wasn’t clear about that.
But the brightness is quite low. I look at my monitor for living (software development), and I’m always very particular about having the best possible ergonomics regarding brightness, ambient lighting in the room etc.
And I always see after-images when reading bright text on dark background. From my perspective, it’s a mystery why (some) people like “dark” mode - it always gives me problems I don’t seem to have in the “light” mode.
I was just wondering if there was anybody else who sees the same thing…
Killing Flash did not kill punch the monkey ads and it didn't suddenly make web pages note efficient.
It just changed the delivery mechanism.
